Half of the misery in the world comes from trying to look, instead of trying to be, what one is not.
The world...is full of resurrections... Every night that folds us up in darkness is a death; and those of you that have been out early, and have seen the first of the dawn, will know it - the day rises out of the night like a being that has burst its tomb and escaped into life.
Alas! how easily things go wrong!
What would the Living One have me do?
Timely service, like timely gifts, is doubled in value.
You would not think any duty small, If you yourself were great.
